# Hello! My snake plant is doing fine overall. It’s just this one leaf…

Hello!  
My snake plant is doing fine overall. It’s just this one leaf that’s turning brown gradually. I pruned it a little on the top but that didn’t solve the problem. Any help?

Maybe try putting that side of the plant in light and keep swapping it round

It miiiiight be from overwatering but I’m not totally sure. I’ve had plants do that when overwatered but I’m not as familiar w snake plants so take that with a grain of salt 😅

No problem! I actually water it according to the schedule suggested by the Planta app, and that’s not very often. So not sure if it’s because of the watering.

These need to completely dry out (and then some) before watering again. So make sure you are checking the soil all the way to the bottom (wooden skewer is the best tool!) and if its not fully dry then snooze the task.

You could be overwatering them, even though it feels like its been a really long time between.

Thank you for the advice :)
